Moving Unraid to New Server

Hi All,

 

My current Unraid Server is still working, but I'm looking to upgrade it. I was thinking of doing the transition gradually. I anticipate testing the Unraid licensed flash drive and the data/parity drives in the new server multiple times (perhaps over a week or two) before I make the switch. Is there any downside to moving the Unraid setup (flash drive, data/parity and other drives) back and forth between the new and old servers during this transition? I wanted to check if there are any gotchas (like Unraid detecting a new machine config and behaving differently, etc) I need to be aware of.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

PS: I will back up the boot drive and drive assignments page before I begin.

No issue in general.

 

Suggest disable array / VM / docker auto start, check no abnormal then manual start one by one.
